Port Forwarding Not Working
Hello,
I recently purchased this router to replace my old nighthawk router. So far I cannot get port forwarding to work. I am familiar with how port forwarding works since I need it for a few older games I play online. I was able to setup port forwarding 100% on my old nighthawk with no issues but this new one I have everything put in and it's not working at all. The games are acting like the ports are still closed.
My PC IP is 192.168.1.200 I setup with a static IP to make port forwarding easier.
As you can see here I have all my old games setup with the correct ports this is how I had it setup on my old router too.
However the games are not connecting at all. Am I missing something? Is there something else I need to do on this router for it to work?
Windows firewall and my AV is not an issue since nothing has changed on my setup except the router and this was all working 100% before the switch over.
